In celebration of Clergy
Appreciation Month, 25 local ministers attended the annual Pastor
Appreciation Luncheon at The Christian Village this week. Most dined
with members of their churches who live on the campus.

"As a Christian ministry, we naturally wish to honor those who
partner with us in providing holistic care for our residents," noted
Ryan Edgecombe, Christian Village chaplain, who organized the
luncheon.

"The Christian Village exists to honor God through providing
excellent care to older adults," he explained.

"We're very thankful to have the opportunity to honor those in whom
we see the love of God shown so faithfully to the members of our
community," he added.

The Christian Village offers a range of senior living options
including garden homes, senior apartments, skilled nursing care,
memory care and Reclaim Rehabilitation.

The Christian Village is among the 14 senior living communities of
Christian Homes Inc., the second-largest not-for-profit long-term
health care provider in the U.S., with campuses in Indiana, Illinois,
Iowa and Missouri.
